- Ezekiel 47:16
On the north side it will extend from the Great Sea by way of Hethlon through Lebo-hamath to Zedad, Berothah, and Sibraim (which is on the border between Damascus and Hamath), as far as Hazer-hatticon, which is on the border of Hauran.
Commentary on Ezekiel 47:162 voices
Hamath, Berothah, Sibraim,.... The line of the northern border should be drawn on by Hamath, the same with Antiochia in Syria, since called Epiphania, as Jerom observes, from Antiochus Epiphanies; and go on by Berothah, a city of Hadadezer king of Zobah, 2Sa 8:8, the same with the Barothena of Ptolemy (q), placed by him in Syria; and from thence the line would be carried on to Sibraim, a city in Arabia Deserta: which is between the border of Damascus; the chief city in Syria: and the border of Hamath; before mentioned.
John Gill· Exposition of the Old Testament (1748-1763)Reformed
Hamath - Emesa or Amesa, in Syria. - Calmet. Berothah - Berytus, now Baruth or Beeroth, which David took from Hadarezer, king of Syria, 2Sa 8:8; but these things are very uncertain. Sibraim - Sabarim or Sepharvaim, according to the Syriac, between Hamath and Damascus. Hazar-hatticon - The middle Hazar; or middle village, as the margin. Hauran - The city Aurana, and the district Auranitis, are in the north-east limit of the Holy Land.
